Charcoal grills are the way to go for cooks who prefer their food to have an authentic, smoky flavor. Meat cooked over charcoal briquettes has a distinct flavor that can't be exactly reproduced on a gas or electric grill.
If at all possible, try to find a gas grill with an electronic igniter versus a push button or knob, as these tend to work more reliably. In addition, a lighting hole on the side of or beneath the grill is useful to have in the event the igniter fails.
When it comes to the best barbecue flavor, smokers impart a distinct flavor to meats. Charcoal is likewise good when it comes to flavor, although these days gas grills are also an option as you are able to add smoking woods to the mix.
A cart grill is a charcoal burning grill that looks like a gas grill. It has a frame and wheels, along with a lid and vents. The temperature can be controlled through moving the grate, adjusting vents, or lowering the charcoal pan.
For the best grilling results, it’s recommended that you turn the meat just once on the grill. For steaks, the key is to turn them when the juices start to bubble on the uncooked side. Generally, the clearer the juice, the more well done the meat will be.
Frequent use of your barbecue grill in summer can help lower your utility bills. By moving cooking outdoors, you do not heat up the house and force your air-conditioner to work harder to cool it down. Plus, if you have an electric stove, you are saving on its operating costs.
Not only do we offer top of the line outdoor gas kitchens that connect to your gas line, we also sell gas grills fueled from a tank, or cylinder. You can refill and replace the cylinder at most hardware stores and at many convenience stores.
To get a crosshatch pattern on your grilled foods, try this: When you place them on the grids, angle them to a one or two o’clock position. After a time, reposition them so they point to ten or eleven o’clock. Use the same process when you flip them.
The origin of the word "barbecue" is a matter of some debate. Most etymologists believe it came from the Arawak word "barabicu," which translates to "sacred fire pit."
With charcoal grilling, you can cook foods that take less than 30 minutes directly over the coals for the perfect smoky flavor. This includes boneless chicken, steaks, fish fillets, hamburgers, and hot dogs. Foods like bone in chicken that take longer than 30 minutes are best cooked over indirect heat.
A charcoal fire needs air drawn from the top and bottom to burn properly. We recommend and sell charcoal grills with vents in the base and the lid to control the temperature and encourage an even burn.
Just like with any cooking equipment, the grates on your barbecue grill will need to be seasoned for best performance – especially if new or after any dormant periods. This does not mean adding herbs and spices, but using heat and oil to create a non-stick coating on the surface.

If you will be cooking leaner foods on your grill, one way to reduce sticking is by oiling it. Use a vegetable-oil-soaked paper towel, and hold it with tongs to rub it over the grill for best results.
The cooking surfaces of most gas grills are made of iron grates, stainless steel bars, stainless steel sheets, or porcelain-covered bars. Stainless steel bars typically make the best grilling surface, as they're high-quality and easy to clean.
When it comes to grates, most serious grillers recommend either stainless steel or cast iron. Stainless steel produces intense heat, is easy to clean, and gives you great, clear grill marks. Cast iron grills, especially thick ones, are great heat conductors, especially for charcoal grills.
The best way to make your grill last as long as possible is to make sure you clean it correctly. After every use give it a basic cleaning with a stiff wire brush while the grates are still warm. A few times a season, remove the grill and other parts to get rid of any build-up.
When you’re shopping for your first grill, you may not realize how many different choices you’ll have to make. When you need someone to help you evaluate the different features available to you, we’re always happy to help.
Be extra careful with placement once you get your new grill home. Make sure the siding on your house can withstand heat, or else you might accidentally cook more than just your food.
The charcoal briquette was patented in 1897 by Ellsworth Zwoyer, even though most of the credit goes to E.G. Kingsford and Henry Ford, who developed charcoal to make use of Ford’s scrap wood.
